“…Globally, our frequency exhibited a higher prevalence compared to numerous other frequencies. A systematic review conducted in the United States and South America revealed that the prevalence of MetS ranged from 0% to 19.2%, as determined by the NCEP-ATPIII-20 criteria [31]. This prevalence surpassed the frequencies reported in previous studies conducted among university students in various countries, including Kenya, the United States, India, Brazil, and Korea [32][33][34][35][36][37].…”

Objective: “ Metabolic syndrome” (MetS) is a set of abnormalities that may be risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes. The current study sought to (1) determine MetS prevalence and (2) examine Adiponectin and ANGPTL8 levels in connection to MetS components and CVDs and diabetes risk in females with MetS. Methods: A total of 350, 20-35-year-old Saudi females were studied. Waist circumference (WC), body mass index (BMI), glucose, HbA1c, insulin, lipid profiles, and blood pressure (BP) were examined for MetS. ANGPTL8 and Adiponectin were also measured. Results: The patients were classified into two groups, namely MetS and non-MetS, according to the criteria established by the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP-ATPIII). We examined biomarker and anthropometric results between these groups. One hundred forty-four of 350 female participants (41.2%) had MetS, with a mean age of 30.5 years. Fasting blood glucose (FBG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), triglycerides (TG), ANGPTL8, adiponectin, and insulin resistance (IR) were statistically significant differences observed between the two groups. BP, BMI, WC, and Atherogenic Index of Plasma (AIP) all changed significantly (P ≤0.05). Correlation studies linked MetS components to higher ANGPTL-8 and reduced adiponectin. The levels of ANGPTL8 were shown to be influenced by the increase in FBG, TG, BP, IR, and AIP (P < 0.05). Factors such as FBG, BMI, WC, and IR have been found to have an inverse relationship with adiponectin levels. Conclusion: 41.2% out of 350 Saudi females at Taibah University in the Madinah region had MetS, medium CVD risk, and slightly elevated BMI, TG, WC, and BP. To lower their risk of CVD and diabetes later in life, overweight young women should be evaluated for MetS. FBG and TG were substantially associated with ANGPTL8 while reducing adiponectin was associated with elevated TG and BP. Our findings may lead to ANGPTL8 and adiponectin's possible predictive function for CVD in early MetS in females.

Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is increasing in India and other South Asian nations, resulting in increased CVD and T2DM-related mortality and morbidity. About one- third of urban South Asians have evidence of MS. MS has been linked to an elevated risk of chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and cardiovascular disease in adults (CVD), particularly in Asian Indians. The prevalence of the metabolic syndrome is increasing, with urbanization and sedentary lifestyles becoming risk factors. The metabolic syndrome is becoming more common in developed countries, including India. Increasing the prevalence of metabolic syndrome, such as cardiovascular disease, obesity, diabetes, and hypertension, which is contributing to an increase in mortality and sickness in developed nations, is currently a global public health concern. This study aimed to review the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) in India.
